Preparation

Step 1

Generously season both sides of chicken with salt and pepper and transfer to a large, re-sealable bag.

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, onion powder, lime zest, oregano and red pepper flakes.

Pour marinade into plastic bag, seal and move bag around so that chicken is completely coated.

Refrigerate chicken for 1-4 hours.

When ready, preheat grill (or griddle) to medium-high and cook chicken breasts, flipping in the middle, until no longer pink. 6-8 minutes total.

Note: after flipping, drizzle a little of remaining marinade over the top.
